Couldn't find a review. I found this at Bed Bath and Beyond on clearance with 50% off for 39.99 and I have a 20% off coupon and there is a rebate by mail for another 20%. My buddy got one, works great with nano, i plugged in my iphone and it worked fine. It did ask to turn on airplane mode and I said no. music worked fine and displayed album art. I didnt get any calls, so I'm not sure about interference. THE BOX SAID "plug in your iphone" but it wasn't apple certified with their logo.

Anyone know, it;s a great deal and I'm heaing up there in an hour to grab it, will it screw up my phone? Am I all good. Sound was great, heres the pic, wish it was black, but oh well for $30 it's screamin deal from $179.

Well it seems like it works based on your testing. And with such a discount I dont see how it could not be worth it. Do you have a normal iPod too?

All that happens when you get a call is a bit of interference until you pick up the phone or it stops ringing. I still use my belkin car kit with my iPhone all the time.

Well I better update with a review. Love it. I used it without the airplane mode and had my wife call and the music faded out and the ringing faded in with very little interference. Great sound, good bass, wireless remote works great. I used the agent 18 adapter, snapped right in while using my agent case. Chaged it while we listened from over an hour. I haven't tested the alarm, but radio worked too, nice aux input and a video out for connecting to TV to watch movies. Battery backup for the clock, battery tray 4(C) for portable action. This was at my local Bed Bath and Beyond.

Overall $129 clearance to 79.99. 50% off so 39.99 I had a 20% off ($8) it was $33.35 with tax. How can you let that go???? It's worth checking your local BBB to see if they have one.

deftdrummer1, I only have the phone, I gave my 2g nano to a buddy who bought the first homemedics radio and turned me on to it's quality and value. I'm happy, now I just need a car charger? ;-)
